Middle East Conflict

Does anybody trust Twitter anymore?

This thread is turning into a prime example why people shouldn’t tbh! Particularly since Musk removed the blue tick from actually having merit. It’s just a propaganda battle now and the main victims are fact and truth.

The fog of war is an awful lot more dense than it used to be as a consequence.

'Twas ever thus.

I was listening to desert Island discs archive with Jeremy Bowen a few days ago.

You could still hear the fury in his voice about the lies told about this incident by uk and us, and the way he was personally smeared over it two decades later.


He's on the news now, saying the size of the blast suggests it probably wasn't a Palestinian rocket.
 
Twitter trust levels are bellow zero now. So many dodgy links doing the rounds. And so much misinformation.

However faking a tweet for a screen shot is very very easy. Always has been.

Although to be fair, the Israelis can deny this until they are blue in the face and nobody will believe them, the timing couldn’t have been worse on the eve of Bidens visit

They can deny it all they like but their ambassador to the UK said the other day the hospital was a target claiming that the Hamas HQ was underneath it
 
This might be true, but until it’s official it’s kind of difficult to believe a random Twitter poster, who is clearly bias one way. Same for tweets from the Isreal side.

Shows how easy it is to spread misinformation when the twitter brigade start frothing at the mouth, it must be true so I will post some randoms opinion to prove it.

Indeed it was, it’s far more amplified and faster moving now though.

Ukraine Russia was bad for it, particularly in the early days. This has already taken it to another scale though and there’s far bigger amounts on both sides of the debate entrenched. Getting to the truth and one that is provided by someone everyone that accepts is going to be nigh on impossible.
